JAMES V. VANDAGRIFF, OF WEATHER-FORD, TEXAS.

CARD HOLDER.

Application. led November 27, 1922.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMES V. VANDAGRIFF, a citizen of the United States, residing at lNeatheriiord, in the county of Parker and State of Texas, have invented new and useful improvements in Card Holders, of which the following is a specification.

This invention has for its object the provision of a price card holder which is constructed from a single piece of material and given a shape by means of which the holder can be supported upon shelf beneath the article to be tagged, and provided with, means wherein the price tag can be easily associated with the holder or removed there from as the occasion requires.

The nature and advantages of the invention will be better understood when the following detailed description is read in c0nnection with the accompanying drawing, the invention residing in the construction, combination, and larrangement of parts as claimed.

ln the drawing forming part ot this application, like numerals of reference indicate similar parte in the several views, and wherein Figure l is a perspective View of the card holder.

Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2 2 ot Figure l.

Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3 8 of Figure 2.

Referring to the drawing in detail, l() indicat s the base ot the holder which is adapted to be arranged upon a shelf or other suitable support beneath the articles to be tagged, while 11 indicates the wall ot the holder which is vertically disposed and arranged at right angle to the base 10. The wall 11 is slightly longer than the base 10 and has its ends bent upon itself to provide chan- Serial N'o. 503,549.

nels 12 which receive the ends of the price tag or card indicated by dotted lines at 18. The bent end portions ot the wall 11 are arranged in advance and in spaced parallel relation to the wall in the formation of the channels 12. The base 10 is cut away at spaced points as at 14C, and the separated portions of the material are then bent upwardly from the point of juncture of the base with the wall 11 to lie in spaced parallel relation to the wall 11. The lower edge of the card l?, is received between these lugs which cooperate with the flanges 12, so that the tag can be easily slipped within the holder or removed therefrom as the occasion may require. The article is very simple in construction, and can be manufactured and sold at a very nominal cost.

While it is believed that from the foregoing description, the nature and advantages ot' the invention will be readily apparent, I desire to have it understood that l do not limit myself to what is herein shown and described, and that such changes may be resorted to when desired as tall within the scope ot what is claimed.

A card holder formed from a single piece ot" material and including a base, and a vertically disposed wall arranged at one end of the base, said wall being slightly longer than the width of the base and having its ends bent toward each other and spaced from the wall to provide card receiving channels, and said base being cut away at spaced points to provide bendable lugs, and said lugs being bent upwardly in advance of and in parallelism with said wall. to re- S0 ceive and engage the card at points between said channels.

In testimony whereof I afix mv signature.
